Big Daddy - No One Is Safe - Official Trailer

Big Daddy dwarfs all of the playable sharks except Megalodon and Moby Dick. Although he is still larger than Megalodon, Moby Dick exceeds Big Daddy's size by 15 meters. He has the 4th most HP, with 325, however, Big Daddy's health drains almost the fastest. Big Daddy as well as Mr Snappy, Alan and Moby Dick, has the largest diet in the game, being able to eat even Death Mines and even Mini Subs instead of having to bump the front of them. It can also eat Mini Sub's Torpedos and be able to destroy Enemy Robo Shark, Helicopter, Biplanes in one hit, instead of 2 hits like Megalodon or Great White Shark.

Its tongue can also stretch out to pull in prey. During a Gold Rush, this colossal fish can achieve a score multiplier of x80.

Companion

You can buy Little Daddy, which gives your Big Daddy 30% boosting in stamina as well as substantially reduces the health drain speed, prolonging your survival time as well as its bonus, for 300 gems, the same cost of the Baby Megalodon.

Trivia

The Big Daddy, the Giant Crab and Moby Dick are the only creatures in the game bigger than Megalodon.

In real life, Big Daddy was not a shark but an armored fish.

No real-life Dunkleosteus was ever as large as the in-game Big Daddy; the largest Dunkleosteus reached 10 meters (equivalent to a Great White Shark), with a Megalodon being between 15 and 18 meters

The game developers call it "A newly discovered prehistoric colossus", possibly suggesting that they are not basing it off a real Dunkleosteus, and just claiming that Big Daddy is a new species of Dunkleosti. This might explain the mutant tongue.

The only thing that appears in the museum that the Big Daddy can't eat are Toxic Barrels.

When originally released, Big Daddy was about the same size as the Megalodon but, as of update 2.8.0, the Big Daddy has been increased in size. At maximum size, this can prove to be a problem, because it will get stuck in tight spaces.

A "Little Daddy" can greatly help your Big Daddy, because it reduces the speed of the health drain. It makes it survive longer.

There is a mistake in the model of him in that he lacks gills.

When he dies, his eye sockets disappear creating a very eerie look.

Since the Crab Lair may not be available in some devices (being closed), those that are not able to enter the Lair also entails incompletion of a mission that a Big Daddy requires (Crab Surprise), and consequently, the Super Mission.

Due to this, the affected players might have a harder challenge to obtain the Missile Launcher (an item that can be obtained free through 75 missions)

Since the Big Daddy is the second largest among all sharks, it is not able to pass through all paths, otherwise it may be difficult to get in and end up getting stuck - which may lead to death.
